Sr. THOMAS, Ont, July ia ter
rible accident occurred 1t the crossing
of the Grand Trunk and Michigan
Central Railways in this city about
I o'clock this evening. An excursion
train on the Grand Trunk from Port
Stanley, ran into : passing freight
train on the Michigan Central, made
up of number Of cars with oil. The
engine crushed into one Of these cars
when the oil instantly took fire and
burned with great fierceness, COM
municating to the cars on both trains,
and extending to Grifin's warehouse,
the coal and lime sheds adjoining the
track on the west, and John Camp
bells dwelling on the east all Of
which were burned to ground with
their contents. Engineer Donelly Of
the excursion train was burned. His
fireman jumped and escaped with
light injuries. The forward car of the
excursion was filed with passengers
who made frantic efforts to escape,
but Notwithstanding that hundreds of
brave and willing hands were immed-
lately at work to assist in their rescue,
it is feared q number of lives have
been lost and that they will be burn
ed beyond recognition before their
bodies can be got out Of the wreck.
At 8 O'Clock when thousand people
were crowding around the burning
pile, one of the oil tanks on car sud-
denly exploded, throwing hundreds to
the ground with great force and scat
tering the fire in all directions and
severely, perhaps fatally injuring
many. At 8 o'clock nine bodies were
taken out. They were burned to q
crisp. The number killed in the dis
aster was 10, and injured about 40.

KNIGHTS OF LABOR CRISIS.
Increasing T Micultles Between the Execu
tive and New Ynrk ssemhlies.

Incrcasing rficulties Between the Execu-
tive and New York Assemblies.
NEW YORK, May 1T. B. Mcclure and
Thomas Barry, of the general executive
board Of the Knights of Labor, will be in
this city Tuesday next to meet the local
officials of the order with view of settling
the increasing difficulties in this city and
Brooklyn. Master Workman POwderly has
become alarmed at the condition of affairs
here. He does not control the general ex-
ecutive board, but Mcclure and others Of
that body fear the effect Of a public
manifesto with Powderly's name attached
to and have yielded to his wishes. Mcclure
and Barry, however, will settle matters
pretty much as the all powerful Home Club
desires. AS . matter of fact crisis in the
affairs of the Knights is close at hand.
POwderly realizes it when it is just too
late. that the rule or ruin policy of District
Assembly ~ has already resulted in dis
,crediting him, and that it will end in the
of the order to which he is
so firmly attached. The 1900 Knights in
Brooklyn are in open revolt, and will pay
no money into the general fund until they
are granted Il charter for Montauk Assem-
bly,. District Assembly "a, 10000 strong
and composed of the printing
trade, has openly cspoused the cause
of the Brooklyn men. The full significance
Of the latter's action is not generally un
derstoOd. 1t was threatened with suspen
sion for its interference. However, if 1t
went out Of the order, it would take with
it the 10000 men belonging to district as
sembles in the East, aside from ~, aud
thus wreck the order. Then the wire pull
ers on the general executive board called
halt and appointed the committee to arbi-
trate. The committee will probably meet
At the AstOr House.

THE DEADLY MINE.

An Exploring Party Breaks Into the Ma.
naimO Mine-Dc2d Bodies Found In All
Directions.
NANAIMO. B. c., May THE exploring
party that went down yesterday morning
broke through into the mine and discov-
cred tho dead lying in all directions. All
hope IS now given up Of saving any of
them. Thirty-6ve bodies were recovered
from the mine. The fire is still burning,
but is under control. The mine is owned
by the Vancouver Coal Company, of Lon
don, England. The latest investiga-
ton shows that 1Ol whites and eighty
five Chinese were in the mine at the
time OF the explosion, At two o'clock the
body Of Michael Lyons was found on level
No. !, 200 yards from the hosting shaft.
He was a mule driver about eighteen years
old, and was found at his station, near
dead mule. The corpse was taken to q
school house where he lies, terribly burned
about the face and breast His face is
black from the effects Of the gas. His
father is still in the mine. A cave-in evil
IDENTIFY occurred just beyond where he was
lying. After the strlctest inquiry it is
learned that there arc forty seven widows,
most Of whom have large families The
Cinnamon met last night and made ar
engagements for burying their country
men. Some Of them refused to place
the dead in collins and had to be compelled
to do so. The stores stin continue to be
closed and little business is being done.
Most Of the men are from Cornwall, York
shire and Wales, and a few are from Nova
Scotia. The fearful character of the ex-
plosiOn can not be exaggerated. Over 100
children orphans have already been count
ed. The progress Of subduing the flames is
proceeding rapidly and it is thought that
oil danger Of a second explosion is over.

M'GLYNN AGAIN.

Rev. Father MalOne's Opinion Of the Case
ofthe APOSTLE OF Henry GeS-Ge-A Hine
to tho Church.
NEW YORK, May Rev. Father Syl-
sester Malone, pastor of St Peters and
st. PauPs Church, Brooklyn, has denied
the truth Of several alleged interviews
recently printed purporting to give his
views on the case of Dr.. McGlynn. He
stands now in the same position as he &C.
cupied when the matter first became
known. In q letter to Pope Leo XIII
some time ago, Father Malone SAID that.
DR.. McGlynn was the best known priest
in America; that his infu-
cnce was far.reaching and was
one whom to censure would
put back the church in America half a
century. He told the Pope that nothing
could blight the future of the church in
this country more than any act of eccle-
siastical authority that might raise the
question Of the rights of the citizens.
Such action would bring about a state Of
public sentiment antagonistic to the best.
interests Of the church. He stated that
the charges against DR.. McGlynn raised
this question Of right of the citizen. Amer
lean Catholics would believe that civil
liberty was trOdden down in the person OF
DR.. McGlynn, should Rome sanction his
removal from St Stephens. His case,
Father Malone added, ought to be consid-
cred apart from the part he took in the
George movement, uhiess the church con-
demned the principle upon which that
movement was based and taught, whichit
has not. The letter concluded with an
eloquent appeal to his Holiness to continue
DR.. McGlynn in the pastorate Of st. Steph--
ems, and the expression of the belief that.
the Judgment Of the PontiR would prevent
a great scandal in the city Of New York.

New York, May IA London cable

his laurels, refusing the diamond cross OF
the Legion of Honor, which the readers of
La France were subscribing to purchase for
him. AS regards the further consequence
of the incident, particularly the forcible
Denomination of Alsacc-Lorraine, my
Paris correspondent writes this morning,
as follows: Without attaching to inflated
articles OF French papers the i'm
portance they do not possess or
deserve, it il hardly TO be ex-
pected that the French people will indefi-
nitely look on with composure, while their
former cOuntrymen are being dragooaed
out of the country or being Germanized at
the swords point. Thus an uneasy feeling
continues to prevail. Though the danger
of immediate war seems avcrted, it can not
be said that there exists any thing like firm
confidence in the maintenance Of peace, if
the armed truce now existing can be so de-
scribed. l learn that there is great effer-
vescence throughout Alsace. II an insur-
rection against Germany were to break out
there is no doubt it would be soon sup
pressed. But who would be rash enough
to anticipate what effect it would have on

INTERSTATE COMMISSION.

Judge Cooley on the Limited Powers Of
the COmmissiOn-Thc Haul Struggle,
New ORLEANS, May 3.-The Interstate
Commission met here yesterday. Judge
Cooley in opening the proceedings said
1T may be well to state at the outset that
the scope Of our authority in the promises
is very much limited and we do not purpose
to go beyond it. Our Investigations are
under the act, but they are not for any pur-
pose Of questioning the prOpriety, justice
or expediency Of that legislation. On the
other hand, all that has been settled for us,
and we are here simply for the purpose of
determining the question whether, in pur-
suance Of that legislation, we shall, in GER
tain isolated cases which have been brought
to our attention, make exceptional orders
which shall give relief in these cases from
the ordinary operations of the law. That
is all we purpose to do, and all We have
any authority to do"
The Commission then heard large num-
Der of petitions for and remOnstrances
against the enforcement Of section Of the
law. The citizens of Shreveport, La, pre-
scented a petition saying that If the fourth
section were enforced against the Texas q,
Pacific road the business of the city would

statement, saying that the city depended
almost entirely on distant cities for it's sup
ply, and that competition between the

railroad to reduce rates.
James Crandall, q merchant Of Shreve-
port. said that previous to the passage of
The Interstate Commerce bill Shreveport

souri,, but since its passage rates have

ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, Nay 7.-Cimbres
Mesa, seventy-nve miles west Of Albu-
buerque, on the Atlantic 4 Pacific railway,
is rugged upland occupied by countless
flocks Of sheep which arc cared for by
herders who follow their hocks day and
night unseen by the owners for weeks 1t q
stretch. On Tuesday Hubert Gonzales,
large sheep raiser, rode over he
plains to inspect his hocks, reaching
the Mesa at $3.50 p. M, and climbed to
the top Of high rock to scan the country
in search Of his herders. At that moment

found some of the sheep scattered and bleat-

Mortified by finding the body Of one of the
men stretched upon the ground, dead. The
other two he fOrnd q mile away, both dead,
but the bodies bore no mark Of violence or
injury Of any kind, and they were scarcely

ing that death had Overtaken them all
within the time that Gonzales had
been in the Mesa. The only plausi-
BILE theory that could be formed as to the
cause of their death was that the extreme
fright caused by the terrible commissions of
the elements, which he himself had wit
messed, had killed the three men at the

faces, which bore the impress of fright and
terror, sustained this theory, and it is be-

ANOTHER DISASTER.


Terrible Marine Disaster Reported on the
Coast Of Newfoundland.
BosroN, May "A st. Johns, Newfound-
land, special says: 1.-THE first news reached
here yesterday afternoon Of an appalling
marine disaster that occurred at the south
west point Of Channel Harbor, to the east
ward of Cape Race, late Saturday night
Shortly after midnight tho inhabitants Of
the neighboring shore were aroused from
their slumbers by the sound Of steamship
horn. Fastening 10 the edge of the water
they peered through darkness, rain add
fog to locate the position Of the
blowing steamer. Presently rockets were
observed to shoot up toward the heavens
I'm rapid succession, showing that an
unknown craft was in need Of assistance.
The vessel WAS only about 400 Yards from
land, but heavy gale and tremendous
sea prevented boats from being sent to the
rescue. Torches and tar barrels were
burned along the beach, and bells were
sounded in order to give the imperiled peo-
pie an idea Of their position, but beyond
this it was absolutely impossible to make
any attempt to aid the vessel. The signals
made on the shore could be seen on board
the vessel. Heartrending cries from those
in distress were borne in on the gale
About 2:3O o'clock, two hours after the
alarm was first given, the ship made .
plunge and disappeared beneath the
sea. The storm continued till day.
break, when it subsidized sufficiently
to allow boats to put of TO the scene
OF the nights catastrophe. Plenty Of
wreckage was found floating about
from which the Inflated steamer was
found to be the John Knox. Captain
Brolly, from Glasgow, bound for
Quebec, with a cargo Of iron, liquors and
bricks. The bodies Of the captain and five
of the crew have been recovered, one Of the
latter having been identified by a certif-
cate Of discharge found in his coat pocket
as that of Fireman John Mcclure. As the
steamer had crew OF about thirty, there
are over dozen bodies still missing. The
John Knox was a steamer of 1,35l tons
register, built at JarrOw in 1853. She was
owned by Neil Mclean, of Glasgow.
